The only plus that I know of in starting a programmer's jobs with their
TSO id is the fact that the SDSF H display defaults to only displaying
jobs with those types of names. This avoids the need for a PREFIX command
or a FILTER. Now, since I don't do this job name stuff, I must remember to

I never said it was always done that way so keep it that way.
The problem is the number of people/processes/procedures arr dependent on the
way things work. Even a 'trivial' change costs (at least) an investment in work
effort.
Also, 'because it is old-fashioned' doesn't make it wrong.
